I am working in ruby on rails with a postgresql database. trying to
develop a package for importers while teaching myself the language.
After changing a view, I tried to access the order listing not realizing
I had caps lock on.
[http://localhost:3000/ORDERS](http://localhost:3000/ORDERS)
This, displayed the public/500.html error page .
Now, no matter what URL within localhost:3000 I go to, I am still
getting the error page only. I cannot run any of my code.
I tried shutting the browser tab, and shutting webbrick and restarting
but I am still getting the error.
HELP!! I checked all the files I modified today. All were VIEWS so
there is no way I messed up a controller or routes files.
What should I try next?

the tab in firefox good enough??

If you’re using FF…
I’ve noticed that closing the tab is not enough to cause a new session.
You
need to close the browser. No idea if that has anything to do with your
problem, but if you haven’t already, you might want to try that.
hth,

Ricky,
I use the excellent Web D. FF plugin in which there is a link
Cookies → Delete Domain Cookies. Works like a charm and no need to
restart FF.
Hope this helps,
